Rove: Public 'Enraged,' GOP Should Focus on Debt Ceiling Fight

Republican strategist Karl Rove, writing in The Wall Street Journal's opinion pages Wednesday, warned that "the public is increasingly impatient, even enraged, with Washington's dysfunction."

He implied that senate Republican tactics are politically hard to defend, and urged GOP congressional leaders to be ready to hit the ground running for the bigger fight ahead: the debt-ceiling vote.

In advance of that October 17 deadline, Rove advocated having "a serious debt-ceiling plan ready quickly." Otherwise, he warned Democrats led by President Obama and, alluding to Tea Party stalwarts, "a faction within the GOP's own ranks – can whipsaw the party."

Rove made this stark warning: "Whoever misplays the debt-ceiling debate" could suffer "enduring political damage."

Rove needs to shut-up, sit down, and have a couple glasses of pinot noir. His days in the Sun are over!

I’m not seeing any rage. Most people that I know are just shrugging it off. I get little from the feds it would seem except the privilege of paying their taxes. It seems increasingly obvious that I real can do without their bony asses. I’m thinking that others are seeing this as well. I say long live the shutdown. Let’s keep it going as long as possible.

Don't back up, hold fast!

You have to realize Rove confuses his Democrat and Rhino friends as being REAL people while the rest of us are just the serfs who should shut up.

This jackass gave us W Bush who bankrupted our nation and gave us Obama.

Cruz is going to try to fix it, but it may be too late.

Didn’t the WSJ and Karl Rove say that Obamacare couldn’t be defunded? Why yes, they did.

And now they want to distract us from this historic victory?

Well, excuse me, but you’ve both proven yourselves to be USELESS.

Sit down. Shut up. And go away.

By “public”, Rove means his Wall Street paymasters, who are afraid of what a default will do to their leveraged to the hilt derivatives positions.

Da “publick” can KMA. If they don’t like what’s going on, they should get a job and start paying taxes like the rest of us.
